Stem day is a parent volunteer thing that does incredible science stuff with mit professors.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCambridge has great opportunities and this school definitely makes use of that, with lots of options for students. however, a lot of the teachers are not qualified to be here and should not be working with children. they ignore the students' opinions and we have to do everything ourselves while the principal (Mr smith) writes emails and takes credit for it. a lot of the teachers teach really fast and don't care about other things that are happening in your life. I've heard the extension school is much better, so if you're looking for a public high school inn Cambridge I would go there firstStudent Review4mo ago - Haggerty School

They have extended school hour so kids spend 8 hours M, T, TH, and F.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTruly cannot recommend this great school enough! As a military family new to the area, I was overwhelmed by the love and support shown to our boys. The teachers care about the students, they make learning fun, and they help students grow both academically and socially/emotionally. The parents are kind and helpful, the administration is wonderful, and most importantly - my kids absolutely love going to school! What a JOY to be part of the Morse family!Parent Review1y ago - Peabody School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe Fletcher-Maynard school is a wonderful school that fosters young innovative minds. It also does its job in involving parents and making them accountable in their children's education. I love the school hours as it keeps students out of trouble. Fletcher-Maynard Academy is the place to send your child; I'm a proud parent of one of their bright scholars.Parent Review9y ago - The Amigos School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere are always waitlists for this school, given that it's one of the few bilingual public schools. That perk aside, I have not enjoyed this school whatsoever. There is a stronger community here than at some other Cambridge Public Schools, but it was largely destroyed by COVID mitigation measures. Parents are just not able to participate in school activities. Even my kid's music recital was asynchronous and virtual.The principal is extremely "woke" and there is a lot of political indoctrination in the teaching. My kid is not challenged, and there are limited to no advanced learning opportunities--because #equity, you know.Parent Review1y ago - Rindge Avenue Upper School
